Hello,
I’m planning to build a very lightweight reverse trike with an Alulight aluminum metal foam panel monocoque body/chassis. All three wheels will use Grin single-sided 1000 watt motors, a-arm suspension, with aluminum uprights. I’m using Shimano 4-piston brake calipers, with the Grin supplied disc rotors. The wheels will be 26” x 2.5” 32 hole rims, with Continental Traffic tires. The rear swingarm is from a BMW FS800. Each motor will have a 72v 24ah battery pack, with individual Grin Phaserunner L10 motor controllers. I’m hoping that the controllers can be connected to an iPad for a dashboard.
What are your thoughts?

Will be following your efforts with interest.
If it's not broken, fix it anyway.

Not a fan of knobby tires for paved streets.
